Thats what I thought. I see this but don't think there was a real one like it.

The French gendarmerie used 2cv up until the early 60's when the Renault R4L became the small car of choice. Obviously the car in the pic is an 80's model, but there again it's wearing Belgian plates. There is a Belgian gendarmerie that carries out a similar role to the French one, but I thought their cars were white...

I would say this is nearer the mark, the 2cv in previous post may well be mock up :o
Mind the possible parking ticket is thought prevoking :lol:
